[NoWordForFluffy]

Here goes!

Thread 8 already; wonder how many we will get to before Christmas?!

Morning! Drinking coffee and watching Carol.

Morning!
Up and drinking coffee before I get ready. Need to go food shopping, then to my dads to carry on clearing it out. I have my scan at 2.10 and I can’t wait to see my wee princess Addie

Philomena - I will definitely tell Addie off if she starts kicking my ribs!

Wreck - I will definitely see if I can get some, Gaviscon is rubbish and this heartburn makes me want to cry 😂

Frangelico - I love newton! that’s a lovely name and v unsusal! I’m not doing too bad at all thank you I’m so excited to see Addie, think I may burst with excitement before 2pm! you are stronger than I am not finding out what you’re having, I found out at 16 weeks

I’m not doing too bad, thank you for asking nero

Thank you fluffy oh god it sounds like I’m in for a rough ride once I get closer to the end hope you have a good day, enjoy your Friday

I hope everyone has a lovely day

We didn't find out the sex with either of ours! I was the child who hunted for Christmas presents and, after a moment's elation, felt disappointed that I'd ruined Christmas Day. I thought that finding out the sex before baby was born might give me the same feeling!

Those two times are the only two times in my entire 42 years that I've managed to be patient! 😂

Acey ranitidine is the genetic name for Zantac. Pharmacies might be funny about selling it though so you may need a prescription.

Fluffy I'm jealous as had to swap yesterday for tomorrow 😭

Ds is on his second bowl of porridge I wish he would hurry up! I need to leave as soon as they're on the bus today so need to be ready too. He's such a gannet.

Morning everyone
Off to Cwmbran today to pick up a parcel from George and to have another Day off ! Yay!!
Have bought these for me to wear up to and around Christmas

Wreck your DS sounds fully recovered eating you out of house and home thank goodness hope the feet are better today !
Fluffy, your Friday yay!!! We did not have the facilities to find out the gender on our 2 DDS but l know l would have wanted to find out ...just because l wouldn't have been able to resist
Acey enjoy the scan of Addie m'dear God knows you deserve to do something that will make you able to cope a little better . l cannot get over how you are bearing this upon your young shoulders. You just be very careful and look after yourself
Frangelico , will you shorten Newton to Newt because l love that it is utterly charming imho! I also love Newton in case that got missed in my enthusiasm for Newt lol have just read again and realised you are going to use Newt ...ignore me l am undone because l have another rare day off and it is going to my head
PSB your DS is a brilliant child ask him he will know ! Did not see Carol today was on the other side watching l escaped to the country

Better shift have a great day everyone

PSB your DS2 has the best school ever!!

Wow psb that's so cool.

He really is mrs so much better. Poor dd was crying all morning and still doing so when I put her on the bus. She didn't know why though. I'm guessing hormonal? I could cry too though 😭

All lovely Mrs!

I'm having a bigger breakfast today. 😋🍳

It is the best school ever Mrs! 😆

Morning all, look at me posting more than once in a blue moon!?
What I know right

I may have just ordered that holly top MrsM!

I still have a few bits and bobs to get, am going to town this weekend to get the stuff I don't want to order online - hopefully I will be fully finished shopping before the end of this month!

This year has gone so fast for me I have hardly had a chance to breathe!

Mrs I've just quoted you on the school's Twitter feed! 😆

wreck I hope your dd is feeling better now.

Acey good luck at your scan!

mrs those are very cute! I would order another of the oven glove so you can put both on, I always seem to need both hands to get stuff out!

buses were equally crap yesterday, it's the one thing that really makes me feel awful, I know it's just a bus but it's such a struggle with it most days that it leaves me feeling really down and bad about myself.

DD's got brass club today. 🎺

Hi all - just got out of my scan. Its taken nearly an hour so far to do the scan because Addie will not play ball haha! She is absolutely perfect, I can’t even put it into words. She is my absolute everything and so much more. She’s the epitome of perfection that’s for sure. My wee princess Addie. I saw her feet and hands and my god she is beyond perfect. She kept kicking the probe away it was so funny! They have no concerns, she is growing perfectly. I’m so happy I just love her more than anything!

Meet Addie - not the clearest photo because she would not play ball! Her chin is up in the air, so funny!
She is perfect 😁

Mrs yep he will be called Newt, only Newton on the BC.

Acey I’m so glad Addie is doing well!

Thank you Frangelico - I am smiling for the first time in days and I’m actually really happy :) I just love her so much and she’s given me even more strength after seeing her

Aww Acey you sound like a great mum already.

Just come back home from picking DC up, we went to the cafe and had tea there because I’m so tired!. DH should be home at 5 so am getting the tea on for him which will be supper for us. Gonna give the kids a bath quickly and am doing their homework with them. They’re staying at my DMs tomorrow and me and DH are going to the theatre. It’ll be a 3 and half hour drive as we’re going down to where we used to live, we’re staying in a hotel there too so a lot to look forward to!.

This LO is making me much more tired than I was with the others. Can barely find it in me to do anything with the kids when they come home from school, we used to go to the beach or for a walk but now I find myself bathing them, feeding them and putting them in front of the tele. Hopefully I’ll get a good nights sleep in the hotel and go back to being normal mummy!.

Aww thank you Frangelico - I try my best. I just love her so much and want to give her the most amazing life ever, she deserves it :)
Bless you, I’m only 20 weeks and I’m exhausted so you must be absolutely wiped out, especially having other kids to look after too. I hope you manage to get a good nights sleep when you go to the hotel :)

Currently having a coffee with my feet up, came straight home from my scan and I’m looking forward to a nice bath!

DS2 says coffee! 😂

I've said it right from the off, you've got your work cut out with little Addie Acey! Once she's walking, I suggest reins or the buggy wherever possible! 😂

Acey You remind me a lot of me when I had Algy, I was only 19 and only really had DH for support but Algy was the one thing getting me through everything. It’s the best feeling ever having a LO.

Picked DS2 up, had Singapore noodles for supper. 😋🍜
